White House Press Conference

"Vive La France" - that was part of the mantra at the White House during this extraordinary week. Millions of people around the world were saddened and angered by the ISIS attack in Paris, as we were 10 months earlier, during the killings at Charlie Hebdo magazine.

The rare East Room news conference was about a crucial topic -- the Iran nuclear deal and efforts to prevent a nuclear weapons build up in the Mideast. But this was not a news conference in the traditional sense; it was rigid and managed -- the way this administration likes it.
